It’s the kaylee and Anna-laura channel now and I’m not mad at it. The dynamic is fun and relaxing to watch. It’s a good next chapter
The hair dryer stand thing is a disability device that’s being sold to everyone else. And we’re (speaking as a disabled person who has multiple hand issues) kind of accustomed to having stuff everywhere-this one gets points for not being institutional beige plastic.
Oh that makes sense!! I’m learning to be more inclusive in the way I see and talk about things, but missed the mark here. I’m sorry! How do you feel about disability devices being revamped and sold mainstream? I can see how it would be nice in some ways and invalidating in others.
@@kayleymelissa I'm also disabled, I don't mind disability device being sold to everyone because that brings the cost down for those of that, can a lot of help from the device. I would have never thought to look for a hair drier stand, I just air dry my hair since I can't really blow dry my hair. Thanks for being willing to listen!
Kayley Melissa No worries! It can be pretty opaque if it’s not something you have firsthand experience with. 😊 The big benefit to having assistance devices “go mainstream” is that you get better colors/design. 😂 My hands don’t work well, but that doesn’t mean I want everything that helps me end up being institutional beige. And unfortunately, “fun” colors rarely exist until someone decides to market an accessibility device to the larger public. 🤷♀️ So I suppose in that way it highlights the frustration-on the one hand, folks who need accessible devices are a guaranteed market. On the other hand, it means companies don’t have to work as hard for our business, so they often don’t make any effort.
The really obnoxious thing is when folks go down the “omg that’s so lazy” criticism when reviewing accessibility devices (or leaving comments). A few years ago, a device to help people put on socks and shoes went viral, and absolutely the main comment was “how lazy do you have to be to not bend over to pull on your socks and shoes.” 🙄 But obviously, that can describe a range of disabilities, or sports or other temporary/acute injuries, chronic illnesses, or even pregnancy! Folks, when criticizing these devices that allow for more independence, seem to forget that eventually, disability does come for us all-whether it’s thru age or injury or disease. (Or pregnancy, which is not an injury or disease, but can still end up putting someone in a place of needing assistive devices, whether it’s because of a baby-full belly or swollen hands or whatever.)
Another youtuber who reviews kitchen gadgets, Barry Lewis, has a really great intro that just asks folks in comments to remember that some of the things he’s reviewing may help people who have disabilities get back into the kitchen, and that’s a good thing-and that those gadgets just may not be aimed at folks who don’t need help. It’s a pretty cool disclaimer and one I don’t see too often on UA-cam, and does seem to help him think “who might this benefit?” as well as keeping comments from veering towards “that’s lazy!”
I was in a bad car accident last year and can't hold anything over my head anymore. At the time I didn't know anyone else with similar limitations. I had given up on being able to dry my hair when I saw the hair dryer stand in a buzzfeed article. Im very happy it went mainstream because I dont think I would have discovered it if it was being marketed to a smaller audience. Also, to answer Kayley's question in video about where normal people keep their's, I have a linen closet in my bathroom and I just keep it in the bottom of the closet when its not in use.
Oh, and Maddie Furse and M Bailey bring up a great point-unless you’re lucky enough your insurance covers occupational therapy, or you are well-connected into a community for support, it can be really hard to know what accessibility options even exist. I’m told it’s easier for people who have used assistive devices since childhood, because schools often provide access to services or people who can give advice, and your family tends to get involved in communities where tips are exchanged for how to make life more accessible. I don’t have firsthand experience there; like many folks, I was injured as an adult and became permanently disabled from that. I’ve been very lucky to have excellent care teams with firsthand disability experience to give pointers, as well as access to occupational therapists. Just knowing there is the possibility for assistive devices makes me more likely to say “no, this hurts/doesn’t work/I need help,” and to go look for it-but that’s a privilege in itself.
You could use the fishtail braid to make a braided bun! If the colour matches, it could work I think!
For the pony tail butt plug, you lift half your hair into like a half pony, tuck the plug under with the wider part against your scalp, then gather up the bottom half of your hair underneath the plug and wrap your ponytail holder around the whole mess! It makes a lovely perky high pony!
Where can you get this? She didn't link to it like she did the other products. Thanks!
We need some Disney hairstyles!
Why are you all always SO pretty. I can’t even handle it anymore.
That ponytail clip gave me flashbacks to my freshman year of high school when I was in the colorguard and we had to wear those and one of the girls (who had just cut her natural hair so there wasn't as much security) got her ponytail ripped off mid routine by a passing tuba....at our championship performance
The things we do for our performances....
A half hour of Kayley Melissa, yes please!🥰 I love your channel and I hope you and AL are doing great!❤
Have you thought about doing a video on the best hair repair treatments based on specific hair damage? So comparing Olaplex vs Pronexa va Keratin treatments and when each is the best to be used based on damage versus hair type? There are so many treatment options out there now a days but if you use the wrong one for your hair type you will actually be doing more damage to your hair than good. Just a thought for future videos. Thanks!
The phrase "...good idea, bad execution..". comes to mind. 😂.
The look on AL’s face when the rope braiding device was running. 😂😳
Kayley: This is another ponytail enhancer.
Anna Laura: It looks like a wine cork!
Me: Suuuuuure. That's what it looks like. Uh huh.
Anna Laura: If you like shoving things up your ponytail...
Me: Ponytail. Suuuuuure. That's what that's for. Uh huh.
Kayley: I have no idea how to get the chubby one in there.
Me: THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!!
I had a similar device to that babyliss twist and loved it as a kid! It made my moms life so much easier, cuz i loved having a lot small braids on my head everyday
I have several ponytails I used to wear with the netting, a set of teeth, and the bungee string. U have to wrap the bungee around your bun under the ponytail after you tighten it and tuck what’s left after that. You also have to have hair that matches your color better lol. People actually thought my ponytails were real and it took me about 3 minutes to fix my hair so I loved em. I think the fact that it was from Wish means it was never gonna work anyway and I never tried a braided ponytail in that style. Also, side note, it was so embarrassing when I started dating my now husband and eventually stayed the night for the first time and had to remove that damn ponytail. My curly one also scared a few people when I laid it down say on a dresser or something.
I immediately thought of "I Dream of Jeannie" when you wore the fishtail extension in the high pony. 😂
I've just had flashbacks to my early teens! I used to have the babyliss rope braid gadget 😂 It was definitely on trend to have tiny rope braids, potentially all of your hair done with them, channelling S Club 7 vibes. Thankfully it didn't knot or trap my hair at the time.
Hannah was my fave.
I forgot feather extension a were a thing 😂 So many girls in high school had them and at the tail end of the trend, I remember my hairdresser had tinsel in her hair and I thought that was going to be the next trend, but it never took off.
Tbh I think it would be super cool to see a tour of your studio and all the tools and stuff you own and how they’re organized
I don’t have time to watch right now, but I’m liking and commenting to help out with that algorithm!!
Hahaha true fan!!! Appreciate you!!
The pony enhancer is a dupe/ knock off from the german product "pony puffin", which got quite popular through the german version of shark tank ("Höhle der Löwen") in Germany.
I might get the blow dryer stand. If I can put a weight on it to hold it in place, it could be a life saver for me. I almost never blow dry my hair because my neck is so bad and holding my arms up makes it hurt a lot and gives me migraines, but diffusing is key to getting my most ideal waves.
it's designed for people who can't keep their arms up for a long time your supposed to sit below it. Not use it to plop diffuse. So it could work well for you 🙂
"What's the one thing you'd actually try?"
Me without thinking: Olaplex 0
😂
I’m so excited to watch this!!! I love these style of videos!!
I wonder if you took the braided extension and wrapped it around the bun after installed if it would work. Almost like just wrapping a braid around a bun
Put the little pony tail popper with the thick end next to the head in the middle of the gathered hair BEFORE tying the hair! Then the hair elastic will hold it even better in place.
The hair twist thing was a toy of nineties.
Yeah, I had a Barbie that came with one of those!
Yeah i remember it from a Barbie doll too :D Total flashback
I was wondering if anyone else remembered this toy. I remember having it in purple
Anna Laura looks SO GOOD with short hair! 😍🥰 That bob maker looks promising.
I already have the Bob thing. Now I know how to use it properly 😃 thankssssssssssss
That rope braid tool -- I had one when I was a kid! I'd do little rope braids and it came with snap in beads to decorate haha
I couldn't imagine your videos without Anna Laura now! you're a great duo!
I see so many hair accessories behind you guys. Can you please please please make a video of all those? 🥰LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!
The worst part of being early is that there are no funny comments to read
lol
I love the olaplex 0 treatment but as someone with lots of thick hair I wish it came in a spray bottle. (writing this prior to your review).
Hi Kayley!! I really enjoy these videos, I think y'all act a little more yourselves and I love that!!! Thank you for posting every week!! I look forward to it every Friday!
That rope twist... 🤦🏻♀️16 years ago I bought this tool (with some additional plastic beads 🙌🏻). Needless to say I never got my hair back. I have curls and it cause a Huge knot
Am I actually going to buy any of these? Probably not. Do I want to be the person who has beautifully styled hair when I can actually go places again? Yes, yes I do.
you are both so pretty and i love y’all’s energy!!!
I could see the panic in AL’s eyes when you started to put the rolly thing in your hair. That thing does look scary
Could you unbraid the funky braid extension and French braid your own hair into it like a regular extension?
moral of the video - don't blow dry a shower cap or else it will melt😂
Love your videos. The fishtail braid flying off your head when you flipped it around made me smile.
Heated deep conditioning treatments are key!
Hi! I love these type of videos! Pls make more!
Ah love to hear that!!! We love making them!
Who else loves Kayley's laugh😂😂😄 (20:31)
The braider thing! I had a Babyliss Crazy Braid when I was younger. It was like that, but three hooks. It came with tiny butterfly clips, and little beads that clipped on, and I LOVED IT! I'm pretty sure I used it from aged 10 fairly regularly, right up until I went to college. Once you got the hang of it it was very handy to do multiple tiny rope braids, as was the height of fashion in the early noughties.
😂😂
I would love a follow up video showing which of these products you have continued to use from all these crazy hair tools/gadgets!
The pony tail doo dad the last thing you tried, you have to do a half up pony and then you put the excess hair around a secure. I can not remember who I saw try it out but that was they did. They found an instructional video.
I have had that hair dryer stand for over 10 years. I use it when I diffuse also and it has always worked great for me 😁love your channel by the way❤️❤️❤️
When I was five I remember having a braider. It was like the twist thing but did braids.
I don’t think ive ever been this early and im LIVING for it
The bob thing would probably make a cute hair roll up style if you twisted the other way (I have about the same amount of hair as Anna Laura) so it's really hard for me to actually make my hair stay put but I LOVE the way it looks esp w some flowers 👌😍
I never skip the adds in your videos, ‘cause I want you to keep uploading 🥺
Anna lauras hair looks stunning! Did she use any other products or just the olaplex? Thanks 😊💕💕
As a disabled person, I noted that you mentioned people with mobility issues, using the rope braid toy thingy, and your comment was appreciated 💜
Kayley should do more hardest braid videos
i should be doing homework right now - but at least im early
yea im at work but here i am lol
Such a cool video , love seeing what hair tools old Kayley would use in the future ❤❤❤
Anna Laura with the bob was such a mom mood.
"one size fits most" 😂
Twirly curls Barbie from the 80’s for that rope braid maker!
I had one of those hairclip/claw ponytails. Took the clip/claw out to get a mini wig that fits perfectly over buns 😅 pin it in place but a scrunchy over it and looks great.
I was shocked the bob clip worked. I wanted to let people know because of you r video on the Pro Hair Tie; I bought some, and LOVE them. I used to use tangle-less hair ties because rubber bands he stuck, I have to cut them and hair out of them. Most hair ties don’t stay put, but the Pro Hair Ties do. Feel free to use this comment or share it with the company.
I absolutely remember you telling us to put a product cap into our ponies and of course I did it
hmm maybe if you wrapped the fake fishtail braid around & it created a big braided bun? that's the only sorta useful thing i can think of :D
we love kayley and Anna laura
i can't believe today is the first time i viewed the videos! i love them! u are both stunning! wow, love the updo! fabulous, hugs n thanks! riley
I can't stop laughing at y'all... I'm so glad your hair didn't get ripped out!
Now I want to get a heated shower cap lmao
I had a mini ponytail claw clip for a dance piece called boogie fever with purple ruffled sequined costumes and it was exactly as bad as your imagining
12:20 is something that happens to me with my hair and the claw clip I sometimes use. My hair is down to my butt, so when I do a french(ish) twist and secure it, that's exactly what it looks like, but it's all my real hair and it's my real hair chasm.
Take the ponytail off the claw clip and it's just a simple drawstring pony and looks much better!
You should do a Bernadette Banner and buy & review the products that stole your picture
You can take the claw clip out we used to them in my schools colorguard the long curly ones look horrible but can be doable
this kind of video is so hilarious. please keep making them!
18:10 My hair does not respond to rope braids. It's either too frizzy and pulls in all of the hair from the sides or untwists when I elastic it.
You are so pretty 💖💖💖
I have the twist secret
It's really good once you work out how to do certain hairstyles
Omg I love Anna Laura’s necklace!!! 😍😍😍
I like the high ponytail thing look so beautiful the 2 one
Hey I love your videos you are the absolute best UA-cam channel out there in my opinion!!! 💕 also I think you should do a video where you show a week of your life as a UA-camr. You could show us the editing software you use and how you film videos. Again I love your stuff and I can’t stop watching your vids 💕;)
Anna looks great with short hair! I love your videos. 🙂💜
For both the pony tail and braid they would be good for Halloween costumes if you use accessories. Like a little better than a Halloween wig but not like tons of money for realistic extensions. The claw clip either gave me Ariana grande vibes or a giant bow to be a cheerleader with a full high ponytail. The Elsa braid for Elsa
Omg Anna Laura’s curls😍😍😍
I love your product testing videos!
Can you do a video on how to take care of you’re hair with zero waste products ?🙏
I disagree, I think your sister looks super cute and young with short hair!
You both are so inspiring and make my anxiety flow away. I do have a video idea. Could you review different purple shampoos at different price points? It’d be amazing
Hailey Robb and jumping on this-discussing if they’re for natural or colored hair. (I really need one for natural blonde/silver hair.)
Anna looks BEAUTIFUL with short hair!!!
That rope braider gave me flashbacks to twist-a-braid commercials. I wanted one so bad. 🙈🤣
That laugh... Holy heck girl you're the cutest.
You should check out the Hot Heads from Thermal Hair Care. They're a microwaveable flaxseed heated shower cap that should be a little less weighty than the gel cap Anna Laura tried and the material is nice and soft. The company is created and owned by a Black woman/professional hairstylist/mom too!
you both look adorable with short hair.
Honestly Kayley’s rope waterfall hack is a game changer
Wow. Just few hours ago I was thinking when's kayley gonna upload
The hairdryer stand would be good if you attach a dryer hood.
The blowdryer stand would be really helpful if you did not have use of one or both arms. I would have loved that when I broke my thumb and couldn't hold things earlier this year...
I had a conair version of that rope braiding tool back in 2001.
Hi can you review the new cute girl hairstyle channel styling heads please
I would try Olaplex 0, the ponytsil wine cork thing, and definitely the heated shower cap thing.
Please do a video on tips to help moms style postpartum hair. After losing so much hair, the baby hairs are beyond crazy (and not just framing your face, they stick out everywhere on your whole scalp) And my ponytail is so thin now that I don't even think that crazy gadget you used in this
video would get covered enough to not be visible. To top it all off, I also have a widow's peek. Help!
